Recent learnings : Eating, Knowledge

The eating quantity should fit within thev two palms. That'll be just enough for the stomach.

You cannot experience anything without knowledge. Mind is only interested in one thing : self perpetuation. It creates the demand for thoughts and invents various concepts. Most of those Concepts​ are projection of knowledge. Knowledge creates experience, experience fortifies knowledge. Thus resulting in the endless cycle of Maya.

The body somehow knows that it is not going to die. But that is not so for the mind and so it keeps inventing concepts like reincarnation. (According to UG)

His question: if you can not experience life how can you even experience death. Can I experience anything without knowledge ?

The demand for continuity comes from the mind. Mind is an instrument. Once it strikes you that this instrument is not going to help in getting any closer to your Self and there is no other instrument. The entire process of searching stops.
